I started an Etsy shop! Link on the footer of my site on my bio!
Of course, I started with an Axolotl. This is the first physical print I've ordered for myself. Currently, I'm focusing on downloadable and print on demand posters.

This week's date night looks a little different. In order to cross all the restaurants off the list we had to do a date-lunch. Though I'm still hoping for a date breakfast in the future.

Though pro-tip - order your to-go pie 10 minutes early so that yo… https://t.co/zq8jBsYBzG

Vegas-2023-Cellphone-Series
I can't decide if these are great or terrible photos. I went to take a shot of the building at night, but didn't realize until I had taken the first one that the glass protective barrier was reflecting the building behind me … https://t.co/BWdCjIu4xK

Vegas-2023-Cellphone-Series.
This is the first time we've really faced the mountains. Seeing the snow capped mountains from our Vegas room felt ironic but beautiful.
I didn't take my camera this trip. I need to plan my packing better.... and maybe the … https://t.co/3r3DujGFpQ

Vegas-2018 Series. Do these look over edited and borderline fake? Yes. But do I like them? Yes. Because this is all I got for nighttime shots.

Vegas-2018 series. The final 2. When I first posted these in 2018, I only shared a few photos. I didn't like most of them. But now that I'm getting more into editing. There are more than I had thought. For example, these photos. If you look at the unedit… https://t.co/D40pHGiQuQ

Interrupting Vegas memories for our weekly date night. We've been here before so don't let the lack of food pictures give you the wrong opinion. I was just too busy eating to remember to take pictures of anything but my drinks.
The second drink, though… https://t.co/Q8MRTxQTS2

Vegas 2018 Series.
Night shots are obviously the best, but this is about as low light as my poor camera can go. Here's to bringing a better camera for night shots next time. If my phone can do it, I can find a camera that can do it.

Vegas-2018 series.
Posting three days in a row seems like a big deal.

Vegas-2018 series.
The first time we went to Vegas we got pretty spoiled with the view. The last shot wasn't so much a tourist shot as a pure 'our weird interests' shot.

Vegas-2018 series.
I love how I start series and then don't resume them b/c I get distracted. I told myself I wouldn't start a series until I had finished and planned all of the photos.... then I get too confident I will actually resume editing them the… https://t.co/jyUJWEsylK

Vegas-2018 Series. Before we get into our latest Vegas photos, I decided to review my old Vegas photos and reattempt my editing skills.

I didn't take my camera with me this year. Partly because I didn't have room in my luggage, and partly because I did… https://t.co/t2coQgM9EF

The next date night. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If I could keep up with anything, we could do a downtown raleigh eats series... but I know not to commit to something like that.

I don't normally take photos of hockey games, but we don't normally attend hockey games outside. These are the only shots I got because I realized I entered the game with a dying phone.

We've lived downtown for almost 2 years and there are still so many restaurants we haven't tried. So for the past several Wednesdays, my partner and I have been doing a date night where we try a new restaurant. We keep track on a spreadsheet so we can kn… https://t.co/VPwkrRKc1C

We took a couple days last week to escape the city. It was the first time in a long time I didn't use my camera at the farm. These are the only shots I got and I tried editing them as dramatically as I do for city pictures. The results seem very over the… https://t.co/zFziL3E8Bs

This is my favorite dessert granny makes. It was very hard to not eat one at every meal, including our morning coffee, so I settled for a cookie. I know I've asked her for the recipe before, but I'm not 100% sure where it went. So now I've taken a photo … https://t.co/wleZSaaF9x

Raleigh 2022 mini series: I don't want to make Raleigh look super creepy and dark. But we do walk at night a lot and I like darker shit.

Raleigh-2022 Mini Series: This was one of the last fall trees I saw this year. But it was after I posted my fall series, so it had to wait.

Raleigh-2022 Mini Series: I liked how this shot had the light flare at the top. But thanks to Insta's ratio rules a lot of it was cut off. Also, this is totally an apartment building and I wondered if someone thought I was peeping into the apartments wit… https://t.co/5RlbSPUX4i
